Free Web NovelChapter 575: Chapter 574: Meeting Beia
Myla and the others went to distribute the meal to everyone outside, and after a while, the leader of the small base came to them and started thanking them again for the meal that the others were distributing.
Aside from coming to thank them, the base leader also came to inform them that they planned to move within three days, as long as the weather doesn’t turn bad again.
Since the base leader planned to move, he also asked for the route that they had used, hoping that they would have a smoother journey.
They readily informed the base leader of the route that they had used, as they had indeed done a good cleaning on the route that they had used.
However, they still said that they weren’t sure about the condition of the road anymore because of the bad weather for many days.
The base leader still thanked them, even as it was also the same with the other routes, so it’s still better to use the route that they had already cleaned up.
Afterwards, Yang, who was the one mainly speaking with the leader, asked about the bases where they had come from because they said that most of them had come from other bases.
Yang also asked for the location of those bases, and the base leader shared what he knew and said that he would ask the others about it again and inform them later about them.
Luciel had also heard about the location of the base where criminals were said to be ruling, so he noticed that a lot of the people in the base also came from that base, as well as other places near that base.
Those bases that were near that base don’t seem to be that large, but they’re still a bit affected by the style of that base because, according to the base leader, even though they weren’t as harsh to their people, they were still exploiting too much from the people.
After the base leader told them about the location and general situation in those bases, he also said that he wasn’t sure if those bases were still around because the population in those bases wasn’t that large.
After telling them about those things, the base leader left and went to check on the people that were receiving the things that their team were distributing.
When he left, Treyton, Yang, and Zam began planning their route later on to also include checking the bases that were mentioned, if they weren’t too far from the routes that they had to take because of the cell towers that they were fixing.
While they were talking about it, Luciel was half listening to it as he was already continuing the series that he was watching before.
After 10 more minutes, he could finally hear the others coming back.
He was busy looking at the screen of his phone, but he looked at those that were coming in because he wanted to know who they had brought, as he heard the footsteps of someone else which were mixed with the footsteps of the others.
He hadn’t encountered anything fun along the way, so he wanted to know if the person that they were with could bring them something fun.
When he looked to where they were, he saw that a woman was walking together with Nathan and Myla. Nathan and Myla were busy talking about the things that they saw in the base that they were in, while the woman was walking beside them.
As soon as they crossed the vines that he made, Nathan immediately spoke loudly and said, "Treyton! Look who I brought!" frёewebnoѵēl.com
Since Treyton was called, he also immediately looked up and looked at Nathan and the others who had just entered the area that he had covered with vines.
When Treyton saw the person that they were with, he said in a questioning tone, "Beia?"
"Yep, it’s Beia! I almost didn’t recognize her because her demeanor had changed so much!"
"It’s good to see you again after a long time, Treyton!" Beia said and gave a small smile.
"It’s good to see you too," Treyton said and then added, "You’ve really changed so much. The last time we briefly met, I still saw you with your girlfriends around. And why are you even in this place?" ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"That’s just how life is," Beia sighed and then sat down in front of them before she continued speaking. "As soon as the chaos started, most of them ran somewhere else because they had realized I couldn’t do anything, as I was even stranded in this place away from where my family was.
Those who were processing things slower didn’t immediately run somewhere but waited a bit before running away.
Those who have other motives waited a bit more patiently, trying to see if they could get some more benefits from me before running away because they finally realized that I don’t have anything to offer.
So, now, I’m only with my cousin who also had nowhere to go, so he stayed with me."
"As for why I’m here and far away from the East where my family is—it’s because I came with my girlfriends to play in a newly opened resort nearby.
When the chaos came, we stayed in the resort with other people, and those stronger people also acted as leaders as they were the ones who gathered more supplies than others.
They also gained some abilities later on, so people were still following them even though their demands were getting bigger and bigger.
As for me and my cousin, who are still ordinary people until now, the things we could do are really limited as we don’t even have proper weapons at all.
So, even though we also worked hard to collect supplies, it’s always not enough because they were always collecting more than half of the things we have as protection fees.
Some of my past girlfriends who had sought the protection of those people would also come and trouble me from time to time."
